Basic usage#

Let’s test items and form names:

import molsysmt as msm

print('Is "file:pdb" a file form?:', msm.form.is_file('file:pdb'))
print('Is "molsysmt.MolSys" a file form?:', msm.form.is_file('molsysmt.MolSys'))
print('Is "trajectory.xtc" a file form?:', msm.form.is_file('trajectory.xtc'))

Is "file:pdb" a file form?: True
Is "molsysmt.MolSys" a file form?: False
Is "trajectory.xtc" a file form?: True
